The '''Depths''' is a location in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom|Tears of the Kingdom]]''. Along with the [[Sky]] and [[Surface]], it is one of the three major elevations found within the game.
The '''Depths''' is a location in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom|Tears of the Kingdom]]''. Along with the [[Sky]] and [[Surface]], it is one of the three main regions found within the game.
 
==Overview==
The Depths are devoid of light, as they're far down from the Surface where the sun's light cannot reach. Despite this, Link can use his own sources of light to see, such as [[Brightbloom Seed]]s, lit torches, or [[Light|Zonai Light devices]]. Throughout the Depths are numerous objects known as [[Lightroot]]s that Link can activate to bring full light to the area.
 
==Terrain==
The topography of the Depths is the exact opposite of the Surface; points of high elevation above, such as the [[Gerudo Highlands]], correspond to ones of low elevation down below and vice versa. This also has the effect of making the locations of lakes and rivers become impassible spires of stone that stretch from floor to ceiling.
 
[[Gloom]] covers much of the Depths, showing on the map as purple splotches sprawling across the terrain. If Link comes into contact with any of it for an extended period of time, he'll begin to lose hearts. Due to the darkness, he will also not recover these automatically unless he stands under an activated Lightroot. The enemies of the depths are also covered in gloom and will deal gloom damage upon striking Link with any attack, with the exception of elemental-based attacks which do both gloom damage and regular damage.
 
==Locations==
Thousands of small armories with Zonai devices are littered across the area, giving Link material to help traverse the difficult terrain. The type of devices offered at these outposts vary depending on the region they're located in. For example, one in the [[Eldin (Breath of the Wild)|Eldin]] region may offer [[Big Wheel]]s to make wheeled, all-terrain vehicles, while one in the [[Gerudo (Province)|Gerudo Province]] may offer [[Balloon]]s for easily reaching high places. Regardless of region, though, all outposts offer 2-4 [[Fan]]s and 1-2 [[Wing]]s.
 
There are also six coliseums in the farther stretches of the map. Upon entering one, Link is trapped inside and forced to fight multiple waves of enemies. Each coliseum only features one type of enemy, which range from common enemies like [[Bokoblin]]s to minibosses like [[Lynel]]s. Once all waves are defeated, the doors unlock and Link is rewarded with a chest.


==''Tears of the Kingdom''==
Akin to these are several platforms around the Depths that house bosses that Link can choose to challenge for a reward. These are completely optional and are open on all sides, allowing Link to flee the fight if he chooses. Some of these platforms have [[Flux Construct]]s of varying levels, while others have dungeon bosses that Link has previously fought. The only dungeon boss that does not appear on these is the [[Seized Construct]] from the [[Spirit Temple (Tears of the Kingdom)|Spirit Temple]], as it already takes place in the Depths.
The Depths are a very dark place where light from the Surface doesn't reach. There are some minimal campfires around, but Link will need to use [[Brightbloom Seed]]s in order to see. Throughout the Depths there are tons of [[Lightroot]]s that Link can activate. When activated, they will bring full light to the area, allowing Link to see in the nearby region.
 
The [[Yiga Clan]] also inhabit the Depths after their leader, [[Master Kohga]], fell into them after being defeated by Link during their battle in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]''. They have multiple outposts set up around the landscape, mostly near mines or Lightroots. Upon defeating the [[Yiga Footsoldier|Footsoldier]] marked with the glowing Yiga emblem, a door to a hut becomes unlocked. Inside this hut are two chests that contain a [[Large Crystalized Charge]] and a [[Yiga Schematic]], the latter giving Link a new creation that he can make using [[Autobuild]].
 
[[Bargainer Statues]] also inhabit the Depths and will provide Link the ability to exchange [[Poe (Tears of the Kingdom)|Poe]]s for common items. Bargainer Statues will also allow Link to purchase previously acquired special armor and weapons found in the Depths. Upon visiting a Bargainer Statue for the first time Link will be presented with the ability to purchase a unique piece from the [[Dark Set]] or the [[Hero of the Depths]] set.
